Jay Loveless Poet Free verse

Love Like Cocaine

Slice me with your tongue
Razor blade wounds
To suck out all my poisons 
Sweet lonely lullaby 
Accusing eyes of sodomy 
Picture perfect prodigy
My deadly sin 
A  bitter taste of arson 
Burning in my organ 
Your the pyre that burns away my mortality 
A sip of tea made from Lilly of the Valley 
A shadow of death stalking with 
Odd angel like wings
A numbing kiss 
Like downing in morphine 
My oblivion
Sweet arms to rest in 
Till my vision no longer holds 
eyes neither like hell nor heaven
Cocaine addiction 
That drip of drugs into your system
Intoxicated blood stream
Id rather not dream 
And instead get lost within your paralyzing - 
Your paralyzing - brain lapse - your moving too fast 
Stay slow and dreamy 
Dancing silhouette like a burning 
Forest fire, pain throughout my veins 
Ravishing and beautiful 
A voice torn from my throat
dying joyful with my last vision being you

Vitor Santos August 15, 2019 at 5:35 PM My name is Vitor Santos and I’m the singer and guitar player in a small band called EVOLS from Portugal. I have used your poem “Love like cocaine” in a song and I would like to ask for your permission to use that poem to release a LP (Vinyl – 150 copies)? We don’t have much money but we like to respect other artists work. I can send you the song if you want to listen. Thank you. I will be waiting for your feedback. Any questions Evols email is [email protected]. All the best, Vítor

Jslambert Mister Roboto July 12, 2014 at 9:02 AM stay away from the YaY-Yo and Morphine. Stick to the green sticky icky and the ultraviolet dreams. I jokingly say that 15 years ago, I really didn't like cocaine, I simply loved the smell of it! Ya DiGG, THis poem is well put together, I sense much metaphoria. I worry less for those who can write about tribulations with a learning tear, and more for those in denial, or just plain ignorant to the snare. Peace out poetess. Long time, no READ, well until today, JoEy

Joe Inka December 5, 2013 at 8:54 PM Damn !!! I love the way you write. Raw yet refined,vulnerable and bad ass all at once. I'll definitely be back for more. P.S> If your describing your own path in this one be careful not to wander too close to the edge. Take it from me , It's a slippery slope. A fun ride down , but tough to climb back up. Jay Loveless December 8, 2013 at 9:39 AM It was a path Ive left in the past year. A very dangerous path I was on. Some bad people in my life, glad to say Ive gotten away from it :) thanks for your comments and concern
